Article Synopsis
- Spontaneous abortion (SA) is a common complication in pregnancy influenced by genetic factors and maternal nutrition.
- A study analyzed 192 women with a history of SA versus 347 healthy women, examining the impact of dietary carotenoids and specific gene polymorphisms on the occurrence of SA.
- The findings revealed that higher intake of β-cryptoxanthin might protect against SA only in women with the TT genotype of the related gene, while no significant links were found for other carotenoids.
Background: Despite advancements in breast cancer (BC) diagnosis and treatment, it continues to be a serious health concern among women due to its high incidence rate. Thus, prevention strategies in BC are essential. Some nutrients such as vitamin D may play a preventive role against BC through different genes which have a vital role in several pathways.

- - The study investigates the link between dietary antioxidant intake and recurrent aphthous stomatitis (RAS), a common oral condition, suggesting that antioxidants may help prevent RAS.
- - Researchers analyzed data from 144 individuals with RAS and 135 without it, using food frequency questionnaires to evaluate their dietary antioxidant index (DAI).
- - Findings revealed a significant negative association between RAS occurrence and both zinc's DAI and total DAI score, indicating that a higher antioxidant diet may reduce the risk of RAS.
